Abstract

See full text

A method for transmitting software from a central computer to at least two further computers, includes connecting the central computer and the at least two further computers with a communication link for data transmission. The central computer sets up a connection to the at least two further computers and requests properties of the at least two further computers. The central computer transmits to the at least two further computers, which have been identified as having multicast capability, those parts of the software which are suitable for multicast transmission. The central computer sets up a unicast connection to the at least two further computers for those parts of the software not suitable for multicast transmission.
